Summary
editDescriptionLuzon knife.JPG |
English: A similar crescent-shaped knife was earlier recorded by Herbert W. Krieger, in his The Collection of Primitive Weapons and Armor of the Philippine Islands in the United States National Museum, (Smithsonian Institution; 1926: United States National Museum Bulletin No. 137) as coming from the Tagalog people of Luzon.
In Krieger's Plate Number 12, the said blade was described as: "No. 1. Curved blade of steel with flattened surface on inner side and median ridge on beveled outer surface; octagonal hardwood handle. Tagalog, central Luzon." The blade pictured above can be seen as having the same octagonal hardwood handle. The blade of the knife is laminated. Overall length: 468 mm (18.4 inches); Blade length: 349 mm (13.7 inches); Maximum blade thickness: 5 mm (3/16 inch) Other uploaded materials by the same author are here: (a) Luzon weapons; (b) Visayan weapons; (c) Moro weapons; and (d) Lumad (non-Moro Mindanao) weapons |
